Alive

I sat alone in the cold In my room that night My face was red with the tears Of a thousand and one lonely nights

No one came No one called No one cared And no one saw

And yet everything was alright As I sat there in my loneliness Wrapped my arms around my knees And I held tight I could feel my heart beat

That's how I knew I'm alive [x8] I feel because I'm alive

Sometimes it's not easy to And I don't want to feel But if I close off and just be numb What would I become?

Shutting down Getting by Even though There's pain inside

Is how I know I'm alive [x8] I feel because I'm alive

And if I break Wanna feel every single thing I'm alive I wanna live, not just survive I'm alive [x10]
